I think music dvd world would be a great idea.I picked up "Labyrinth" today in a chazza for 50p (awful kids film), mainly because Bowie is in it,he has the lead role and sings tunes all through especially written for the film,grey area already?.I love the idea of a dunkability index:),rich tea would only score if two back to back were used:)
Wait, I have to scan what now? Member since Jan 2013 772 Points Moderator
I'd never thought of myself as really collecting them, but I seem to have an awful lot of them...brochure world anyone? Old Travel brochures, car showroom brochures, that sort of thing.
Mother seemed to collect a lot too. Mainly those little guide booklets that you get around churches and stately homes, but also those local attraction leaflet/booklets you get in the lobby of B&Bs and hotels.
That's "Taking The Biscuit" (Ouch!:)
Seriously though,as regards "Biscuit World",i would like to offer a scanning tip ...
It's advisable not to leave chocolate biscuits too long on the scanner!,especially when scanning the "A" side
Ah yes,the "Jaffa Complex"
Perhaps it could be determined by the Dunkability index,whether it could maintain a set period of time in the horizontal position without breaking.
The Jaffa cake debate actually went through the courts, since the difference in defining it as a chocolate biscuit or a cake determines whether VAT tax is payable on it. There was a tribunal hearing, and the whole issue was in the balance - until McVities (who didn't want it defined as a VAT-payable chocolate biscuit) presented the tribunal with a specially made, 12-inch wide Jaffa cake, which they proceeded to enjoy over a cuppa. Unsurprisingly, they decided it was a cake after all, and so it escaped VAT.

Indeed, and it's still often used as a case study for accountancy students.
